Chapter 186: Reunion
The city construction of Wilner and Ilia are two styles, the latter belongs to the seaside resort city, where sun, sand, and beauty are its characteristics; The former pays more attention to cultural and historical accumulation.
As the most famous music capital on the continent, Werner is best known for the concert halls scattered throughout the city, where the music atmosphere is so rich that it can drown someone like Colin who is allergic to art.
The Academy's presentation will have to wait at least until the day after tomorrow, and of course these two days will have to take a good look at Werner.
Felix, as the host, naturally became a tour guide.
As one of the most famous cities in the entire continent, Colin knows a lot about Werner, and with the constant introduction in Veronica's letters to him, he has been able to draw a three-dimensional map of the city in his mind.
"You're here at the right time, there's a concert at the Golden Dome tonight conducted by Mr. Carl Young, and even in my capacity, I can only get five tickets."
As the group passed a large road, Felix stood still and pointed to a grand building next to it.
This is a concert hall under the Werner Music Society, and it is called the "Golden Dome" because of the extravagant interior decoration, a large amount of gold, and the entire ceiling and walls are golden.
It is also one of the largest and most famous concert halls in Werner.
"A disciple of Master Blanche, Mr. Carl Young?" In order to have a common language with Veronica, Colin memorized a lot of common knowledge and names in the music industry, so as long as he didn't talk directly about music itself, he could say a thing or two.
"That's right, Mr. Karl Young has been conducting at the New Year's Concert for two years in a row, and you know, the orchestras of the classical period did not have a conductor, or did Maestro Blanche pioneer the concept, so all his disciples, in addition to being proficient in the harp, were the first full-fledged conductors, and Mr. Karl Young was one of the best."
Felix was evidently a typical Osterea, who could forget about magic when it came to music, and continued: "I know Mr. Carl Young well, and his harpsichord and organ are excellent. β
"To be honest, Lord Felix, I don't know much about music."
In light of the lessons of the past, Colin no longer pretends to understand art, and often does not say anything if he can. However, his authentic Wolf Tower accent makes it difficult for people to believe this fact.
"You're too modest." Felix apparently took this as politeness, and continued: "Five tickets, you can bring two students with you. β
As he spoke, he asked the two men behind Colin, "Harold and Burke, right?" β
"Yes, Lord Felix."
The two of them were excited to see that each other still remembered their names, and to be able to go to the famous "Golden Dome" to listen to a concert at night.
"My disciple's name is Austin, you can get to know him then."
"I remember that His Excellency Felix has two disciples?" Colin asked in passing.
"Hmm." Felix nodded: "There is also a girl named Susan, this girl's magical talent is very ordinary, but she accepted it for the sake of her being the granddaughter of Master Blanche, it's not that I have a clichΓ©d concept, but female magicians are always lacking in hard work and study, and Susan is still too far behind his senior brother." β
Somehow, Colin first thought of his senior sister, which seemed to be very much in line with Felix's point of view, but when he thought of Sophia, he felt that he couldn't agree.
After all, people are different, and Sophia's spirit of knowledge and research is something that even Colin admires very much.
The Duke's niece, who was almost obsessed with botany, could study what she liked day and night, and now with the help of Twilight's growing library and Colin himself, the strength of magical creatures has grown by leaps and bounds, and the subsequent plant improvements in the plantation have rarely been done by Colin herself, and this is still under the premise that she does not understand space magic.
Felix probably felt that it was inappropriate to belittle his disciple in this way, and added:
But Susan is very quick and diligent...... By the way, the proof of the fourth conjecture of Laxiri was the one she got back from Princess Veronica. β
"Princess Veronica......
Before he could finish his sentence, he noticed Felix looking in the direction of the side.
He looked along the other's line of sight and caught a pretty figure in a dress, surrounded by a group of guards and maids, ready to board the carriage.
Colin never imagined that he would meet Veronica on the first day he arrived in Werner, or on such an occasion.
Veronica had apparently just come out of a building next to the Music Society, and judging by the descriptions in previous letters, it was supposed to be the residence of the "old immortal" Blanche.
"Teacher?"
Veronica apparently didn't notice a few passers-by on her side, but one of the girls with her shouted first.
Susan also came to visit her grandfather, and just after that, she went out with Veronica, and saw Felix at a glance.
Veronica stopped, looked this way, and then walked with Susan.
"I didn't expect to meet here, hello, Lord Felix."
Veronica had great respect for the great magician who had helped her a lot, and after the proof was published, the two met several more times, but Felix did not visit the Tulum embassy after confirming that the author of the certificate could not be found out from Veronica.
However, when you meet on the road, you naturally have to say hello.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Felix always pays attention to etiquette, and after hesitating for a moment, he still turned sideways and said, "Let me introduce you, this is Professor Cohen Snape from the Ilia School of Magic, and his thesis has just been nominated for the Albert Award this year. β
Colin knew very well why Felix hesitated, after all, he was afraid that Cohen Snape would really do something immoral.
He wanted to laugh at the old man's ramblings.
Even if you don't mention the respect for Veronica, it is impossible for you to use a fake identity that will not last a few days to cuckold the real Colin Vane, do you want Lord Shaya's face?
When Veronica saw Colin, there was a hint of confusion in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.
Colin was well aware that although the druid's bark technique could change his appearance, his body and voice could not.
Only his teacher and sister knew about his pseudonym Cohen Snape, and the communication with Veronica was not guaranteed to be foolproof after all, so it was not mentioned.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess." Colin's formal giving.
Hearing Colin's voice, Veronica apparently went into a trance again before responding, "Hello, Professor Snape, I've heard that you turned down the Albert Award in the end. β
The refusal of the award is the biggest news in the Western Continent in the near future, and Veronica has certainly heard about it.
"That's not worth mentioning, speaking of which, I owe that I owe that unnamed magician of your country for that paper, without whose proof I would not have been able to achieve such an achievement."
Colin smiled: "Although I have not been able to meet the author, I have been friends with that Excellency for a long time from the words of that testimony, and in my eyes, he must be a handsome, elegant and personable gentleman." β
